Thanksgiving Down Time

So far the Thanksgiving break has been lots of fun. This afternoon I am watching the McClelland children while Mom and Dad have a well deserved time away for a few hours. Quinn is off with Grampy loading up wood at Opa's. Kaleigh is taking a nap and Avery is taking a "Blues Clues" semi-rest. So I have some time to blog.

Thanksgiving Day was full of food and fun. Yesterday more fun and food with the Patterson/Schroeder brunch! (See the blogs of those who have posted pictures!) Last night we went to GG and GGpas with our leftovers and I lost 3 games of Scrabble. This morning a haircut, a trip to the Cow Palace for Mary's craft sale, and some plumbing repair work (I assisted). This week the pipes under the kitchen sink had way more use than they're used to and sprang a leak.

Maybe tomorrow I'll do a little Christmas shopping even though the stores will probably be as picked over as the turkey carcasses in many a refrigerator!

Thanks to all of you that made the Schroeder Thanksgiving weekend special! And to those of you that we didn't get to see, Happy Day After the Day After Thanksgiving!
